A Heart Needs a Home

, , , , , , ,

I mentioned I had been going through a stretch of dark depression, and found myself listening to boozers, Celts and boozy Celts singing sad sad songs... Well, I posted a video by one of the boozers (Tom Waits), and some boozy Celts (the Pogues), but here's a video by the one non-boozy Celt I've been listening to, also singing sad songs.

(probably a good thing he isn't a boozer. this is one of his cheerier songs)

A Heart Needs a Home
Richard and Linda Thompson





I know the way that I feel about you
I'm never gonna run away
I'm never gonna run away
I never knew the way when I lived without you
I'm never gonna run away
I'm never gonna run away

I came to you when no one could hear me
I'm sick and weary of being alone
Empty streets and hungry faces
The world's no place when you're on your own
A heart needs a home

Some people say that I should forget you
I'm never gonna be a fool
I'm never gonna be a fool
A better life, they say, if I'd never met you
I'm never gonna be a fool
I'm never gonna be a fool

Tongues talk fire and eyes cry rivers
Indian givers, hearts of stone
Paper ships and painted faces
The world's no place when you're on your own
A heart needs a home

ValsOne step for aching, and two steps for breaking...
